At the Henry Street
Hebrew School, Goldblatt, the new teacher,
finished the day's lesson.
It was now time for the usual
question period.
"Mr. Goldblatt," announced
little Joey, "there's somethin' I can't
figger out."
"What's that Joey?" asked
Goldblatt.
"Well accordin' to the Bible,
the Children of Israel crossed the
Red Sea, right?"
"Right."
"An' the Children of Israel beat up the Phillistines, right?"
"Er--right."
"An' the Children of Israel built the Temple, right?"
"Again you're right."
"An' the Children of Israel
fought the 'gyptians, an' the
Children of Israel fought
the Romans, an' the Children of Israel wuz
always doin' somethin' important,
right?"
"All that is right, too,"
agreed Goldblatt. "So what's your
question?"
"What I wanna know is
this," demanded Joey. "What wuz all
the grown-ups doin?"
